    I believe the terminator mustangs are the cobra mustangs which are supercharged and then add aftermarket turbos.

    Should i be concerned about the .28 toe in the rear? Or the .7 camber up front? The tech seemed like he was having problems with my alignment. I explained to him how the LR UCAs work and i gave him the sheet that shows how to adjust them, but he didnt even touch them. I know because i torqued them to 130 but and they were still at 130. Spc recommends 150 ft lbs on the instructions.

    He probably figured "green is good enough". He could have done a better job on the alignment on your truck. As for the rear maybe he didn't have the alignment "head" in good. Otherwise not much you can do.

    rear toe can not be adjusted due to it being a straight axle. yeah he def could have done a better job getting the UCA cambers the same. U paid for an alignment and they should have adjusted it.

    Thanks guys, i might bring it back. I might also add a 1/4 top plate spacer on the drivers side to fix my taco lean so i will probably need to get it aligned anyway after that. I installed dakars so i was worried that i threw the axle out of whack

    Yes adding the top plate will necessitate another alignment and they can get it in to spec more too. As for the new leaf pack as long as the center pin is in the hole and the front and rear bolts for the bushings and u-bolts are tight you should be fine. There isn't adj on a solid axle unless it has rear steer.

    The rear should be fine then. I dont see where i could have screwed up anywhere. If anything i was overly cautious. U bolts torqued in a star pattern with equal amount of threads showing, bushings were tightened to 89 ft lbs once the weight of the truck was on them and center pin is definitely in the hole.

    I'm not a hardcore Metallica fan. I stopped caring when Re-Load came out. Death Magnetic isn't bad. But St. Anger is killed by that snare drum.

    LMFAO truck wouldn't be able to turn the blower. Kenne Bell 2.8 Mammoth cool little thing on this car is that it has dual injectors per cylinder, which means Octane on Demand. What this means when the car goes into full boost the engine is fed automatically race gas 110 octane, with meth injection (not the drug). while driving around its being fed 93 pump.

    The car has a 10 gallon fuel cell in the trunk for the race fuel. to fill that little sucker is $80. 110 is a little over 8 bucks a gallon.
